Arc Trooper question...

Heya folks,

So far, I've only been following the Clone Wars through the TV series (I know, I know... ) so I apoligise if this is a dumba$$ question.

Have the names/numbers of any of the Arc Troopers been revealed yet? I know Clone Troopers have a number on the back of their helmets (not that I know the formatting of the number), I just wondered if any of the comics/novels had mentioned the Arc's in this way.

Cheers in advance,
B.

Well, none of the ARCs in the cartoon specifically have a name.

However, an ARC in a Clone Wars comic series called "The Battle of Jabiim" is named "Alpha". He's really cool... Has a snappy attitude and downtalks the padawans and is a little sarcastic with Obi-Wan. He's great! He's also in the single comic book "The Battle for Kamino".

Actually, I have never bought any other comics in my life besides these four books (4 Jabiim ones and the 1 Kamino book), and they're really cool! So, this is coming from a non-comic fanatic. Simply bought these comic books because I really like their little stories in the Clone Wars. They're really good.


So, a long-winded answer to your question is: No. None of the specific clones from the cartoons have a name, but some others (such as Alpha, or the clones in the Star Wars Insider short fiction) do have names.

 

Have these comics been realesed in the UK yet? i know most of the novels havent

If they have does anyone know were i could get them from considering i have no way to get to the nearest comic shop (which is around 100 miles away)?

I really want to keep up with the Clone Wars, its the part of Star Wars im most intrested in since Anakin and Obi are my fav characters

 

Have these comics been realesed in the UK yet? i know most of the novels havent

Yes they are, and the novels have been released too. You can get the the novels at Amazon, Borders, Ottakars, Forbidden Planet and Waterstones. The TPB's (which is a collected volume of comics) are avaliable at most of those places too.

As to the question, Genndy Tartakovsky (as reliable as he is ) says there are only around 12 ARCs.

 

//Amazon//

Those shops you suggested are the ones that are 100 miles away lol, thanks though, i will check Amazon for the comics, any chance of the names of the collection?
